    I've done some self-examination and concluded that I'm based for dehumanizing scabs

    After God had finished the rattlesnake, the toad, and the vampire, He had some awful substance left with which He made a scab.

    A scab is a two-legged animal with a cork-screw soul, a water-logged brain, a combination backbone of jelly and glue. Where others have hearts, he carries a tumor of rotten principles.

    When a scab comes down the street, men turn their backs and angels weep in heaven, and the Devil shuts the gates of Hell to keep him out.

    No man has a right to scab so long as there is a pool of water to drown his carcass in, or a rope long enough to hang his body with. Judas Iscariot was a gentleman compared with a scab. For betraying his master, he had character enough to hang himself. A scab has not.

    Esau sold his birthright for a mess of pottage. Judas Iscariot sold his Savior for thirty pieces of silver. Benedict Arnold sold his country for a promise of a commission in the British Army. The modern strikebreaker sells his birthright, his country, his wife, his children and his fellow men for an unfulfilled promise from his employer, trust or corporation.

    Esau was a traitor to himself; Judas Iscariot was a traitor to his God; Benedict Arnold was a traitor to his country; a strikebreaker is a traitor to his God, his country, his wife, his family and his class.

        Treating humans like cattle and refusing to pay them enough to feed and shelter themselves is humanizing but calling someone a mean name is dehumanizing actually smuglord

        Is 'bootlicker' kink-shaming? Are all temporarily embarrassed millionaires just subs for boss-doms?

        "being fin subs to fin doms" is the underlying sexual pathology of capitalism soviet-hmm

    Well folks, Chris got me. I took his advice and examined myself, it it turns out that the real reason I want to dehumanize strikebreakers is because I'm jealous.

    Yes, jealous. I wish I too could live without a backbone or any moral feeling. I wish I could experience life like they do, as a mindless husk stuffed with misplaced loyalty to capital. If only I could be like them, voluntarily shorn of my humanity for the likes of fucking Chris

    Calling effective altruists "cultists" is patently accurate.

    help I can't decide whether to make fun of the idea that libertarians can be altruists or make fun of the idea that libertarians can be effective
